RGE is the world\u2019s largest producer of viscose, which is used in the manufacture of synthetic textiles and is also a leading producer in the global pulp, paper and packaging sectors through its subsidiaries Asia Pacific Resources International Limited (APRIL) in Indonesia, Asia Symbol in China, and Bracell in Brazil.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>This investigation reveals that RGE\u2019s pulp mill in China has been using wood from companies that have recently cleared large tracts of tropical rainforest in Kalimantan, Indonesia\u2019s territory on the island of Borneo. Much of the rainforest, before it was destroyed, was habitat for endangered Bornean orangutans, according to data published by Indonesia\u2019s Ministry of Environment and Forestry.<\/p>\n\n<p>Download the report in English: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-international-stateless\/2023\/05\/3bdb7844-pulping_borneo_2023.pdf\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-international-stateless\/2023\/05\/3bdb7844-pulping_borneo_2023.pdf\">Pulping Borneo <\/a><\/p>\n\n<p>Download the report in Bahasa Indonesia: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-international-stateless\/2023\/05\/2e894f13-babat_kalimantan_2023.pdf\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-international-stateless\/2023\/05\/2e894f13-babat_kalimantan_2023.pdf\">Babat Kalimantan<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Despite its well-publicized commitment to \u201cNo Deforestation\u201d, Indonesia\u2019s Royal Golden Eagle (RGE) Group, one of the world\u2019s largest pulp and paper companies, still has deforestation in its pulp supply chain.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":59888,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_planet4_optimize_post_is_variant":false,"_planet4_optimize_experiment_name":"","_planet4_optimize_variant_name":"","ep_exclude_from_search":false,"p4_og_title":"","p4_og_description":"","p4_og_image":"","p4_og_image_id":"","p4_seo_canonical_url":"","p4_campaign_name":"","p4_local_project":"","p4_basket_name":"","p4_department":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[84],"p4-page-type":[62],"class_list":["post-59879","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nature","tag-forests","p4-page-type-publication"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59879","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59879"}],"version-history":[{"count":15,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59879\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":62230,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59879\/revisions\/62230"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/59888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59879"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59879"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59879"},{"taxonomy":"p4-page-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/international\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/p4-page-type?post=59879"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
